DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In order to make the objects, the technical solutions and the advantages of the present disclosure more apparent, the present disclosure will be described hereinafter in a clear and complete manner in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments. Obviously, the following embodiments merely relate to a part of, rather than all of, the embodiments of the present disclosure, and based on these embodiments, a person skilled in the art may, without any creative effort, obtain the other embodiments, which also fall within the scope of the present disclosure.

Organic Light-emitting Diode (OLED) includes AMOLED and PMOLED. The driving control IC of AMOLED is relatively complex, the light transmittance of the screen in the display region of AMOLED is relatively low, which will affect the photographing effect of the under-screen camera. The driving control IC of PMOLED is relatively simple, the light transmittance of the screen in the display region of PMOLED is relatively high, which is conducive to the photographing of the under-screen camera. Therefore, in the embodiments of the present disclosure, display region of the display substrate is divided into two regions: a display region (the first display region) corresponding to the under-screen camera and the other display region (the second display region). The first display region not only needs to display normally, but also needs to be able to transmit light to realize photographing function, and a requirement of the light transmittance is high, as a result, PMOLED is used, and virtual light-emitting units are formed at some of the position to improve the light transmittance of the screen. The second display region still use AMOLED to ensure the display effect.

As shown in FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 , the present disclosure provides in some embodiments a display substrate including: a driving back plate, having a first display region 10 and a second display region 20; an anode pattern, arranged at a side of the driving back plate, and including a plurality of first electrodes 11 in the first display region 10 and a plurality of second electrodes 21 in the second display region 20, and the plurality of first electrodes 11 being of strip shapes extending along a first direction and being spaced apart from each other along a second direction; a light-emitting layer, arranged at one a of the anode pattern away from the driving back plate, and including a first light-emitting portion 12 in the first display region 10 and a second light-emitting portion 22 in the second display region 20; and a cathode pattern, arranged at a side of the light-emitting layer away from the driving back plate, and including a plurality of third electrodes 13 in the first display region 10 and a fourth electrode 23 in the second display region 20, and the plurality of third electrodes 13 being of strip shapes extending along the second direction and being spaced apart from each other along the first direction. The plurality of first electrodes 11 and the plurality of third electrodes 13 are arranged in an intersecting manner to form a plurality of intersections, a part of the intersections form light-emitting units P1s, and a part of the intersections form virtual light-emitting units P2s.

FIG. 4 is a schematic view of PMOLED, two electrodes of the PMOLED are in a matrix structure, that is, PMOLEDs in a same row share an electrode (e.g., an anode), and PMOLEDs in a same column share an electrode (e.g., a cathode). In displaying, the PMOLEDs may be lighted row by row or column by column, the PMOLEDs are usually lighted row by row and column electrodes are data electrodes. An implementation mode is that a pulse signal is cyclically applied to each row electrode, and at the same time, each column electrode provides driving current pulse signal of the PMOLED corresponding to the row, so as to realize the display of all PMOLEDs of the row. PMOLED has a much simpler structure than AMOLED.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, when the display substrate is applied to the electronic device, the first display region and the under-screen camera are arranged opposite to each other, if the camera is detected to be turned on, the first display region is controlled not to display and to be in a light transmission state, and if camera is detected to be turned off, the first display region and the second display region are controlled to display together. AMOLED is arranged in the second display region to ensure the display effect, and PMOLED is arranged in the first display region, driving control IC is relatively simple and virtual light-emitting units are formed in the first display region, and light transmittance of the screen is relatively high, so as to ensure photographing effect of the camera.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the second display region 20 of a concave shape with a notch at the top, and the first display region 10 is arranged in the notch. Of course, in some other embodiments of the present disclosure, a position of the first display region 10 is not limited thereto. For example, as shown in FIG. 5 , the first display region 10 may also be arranged in one corner region or two corner regions of the second display region 20. An arrangement position of the first display region 10 is determined in accordance with a position of the under-screen camera of the electronic device to be applied.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a shape of the first display region 10 is of a rectangular shape, an ellipse shape, a circle shape, or other shapes.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 5 , a resolution of the light-emitting unit P1 in the first display region 10 is smaller than a resolution of AMOLED in the second display region 20. That is, the quantity of PMOLEDs per unit area in the first display region 10 is smaller than the quantity of AMOLEDs per unit area in the second display region 20, so as to further improve the light transmittance of the first display region 10. In the embodiments of the present disclosure shown in FIG. 1 , the quantity of rows of the PMOLEDs in the first display region 10 is the same as the quantity of rows of the AMOLEDs in the second display region 20 on both sides of the first display region 10, and the PMOLEDs and the AMOLEDs are aligned to each other to facilitate display. However, in the column direction, an interval between two adjacent PMOLEDs is greater than an interval between two adjacent AMOLEDs to improve the light transmittance. Alternatively, in some other embodiments of the present disclosure, the quantity of rows of the PMOLEDs in the first display region 10 may also be less than the quantity of rows of the AMOLEDs in the second display regions 20 on both sides of the first display region 10, and a manner to reduce resolution of the first display region is not limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the light-emitting units in the first display region 10 may be arranged more closely (reducing spacing between adjacent first electrodes and/or spacing between adjacent third electrodes), so that the resolution of the light-emitting units in the first display region 10 is the same as the resolution of the AMOLEDs in the second display region 20.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a distance between adjacent first electrodes is 10 μm to 20 μm.

In the embodiments of the present disclosure, a width of the first electrode 11 in the second direction at an intersection where the light-emitting unit P1 is formed is greater than a width of the first electrode 11 in the second direction at an intersection where the virtual light-emitting unit P2 is formed, or a width of the third electrode 13 in the first direction at an intersection where the light-emitting unit P1 is formed is greater than a width of the third electrode 13 in the first direction at an intersection where the virtual light-emitting unit P2 is formed. In the embodiments of the present disclosure shown in FIG. 3 , a width of the third electrode 13 in the first direction at an intersection where the light-emitting unit P1 is formed is greater than a width of the third electrode 13 in the first direction at an intersection where the virtual light-emitting unit P2 is formed. The width of the first electrode or the third electrode at the intersection where the virtual light-emitting unit P2 is formed is less than a predetermined threshold. The above-described width of the first electrode or the third electrode at the intersection where the virtual light-emitting unit P2 is formed is narrow, an effective light-emitting unit may not be formed, but the light transmittance is significantly higher than the light transmittance of the light-emitting unit P1, thereby to improve the light transmittance of the first display region 10.

In some other embodiments of the present disclosure, the virtual light-emitting unit may also be formed by not providing the first light-emitting portion at the intersection point where the virtual light-emitting unit P2 is formed.

As shown in FIG. 2 , in the embodiments of the present disclosure, two of four intersections in two adjacent rows and two adjacent columns form the light-emitting units, the other two of the four intersections form the virtual light-emitting units, and two intersections forming the light-emitting units are arranged on a diagonal line of a rectangle formed by the four intersections, so as to distribute the light-emitting units P1s more uniformly.

A film layer structure of the PMOLED and a film layer structure of the AMOLED in the embodiments of the present disclosure will be described hereinafter.
